Fast Into Deaths

At first Hi to all . I am new at blogging and I am writing my first post . May be I will bore you because I don't have much idea about blogging and writing . But I want to share my thoughts with you guys . In my college days I used to discuss my thoughts with my friends but as of now our college ended and I am sitting at home and have no one to discuss about . So , I decided that I can connect to my friends and share my thoughts with them by writing Blogs . That's why I came here . I am writing my first blog on our latest issue - corruption . I think you all will be fed up with all time news on our news  channels about Baba Ramdev and Anna Hazzare and with friends articles on facebook and twitter . I think I will show you a different way may be you also have think of the way I am thinking . So , Here It goes ...... 

Let me start by saying "SUPPORT BABA RAMDEV IN HIS CAUSE BUT NOT HIS FAST INTO DEATHS " . How many of you are agreeing my first sentence ? I think most of you are thinking that government is filling pressure by the steps taken by Baba and Anna and there must be some good steps which will be taken by government . But , I am reminding you that the first Lokpal Bill was introduced by Shanti Bhushan and passed in the 4th Lok Sabha in 1969 but could not get through in Rajya Sabha , subsequently, Lokpal bills were introduced in 1971, 1977, 1985, 1989, 1996, 1998, 2001, 2005 and in 2008, yet they were never passed and it is pending. So , I don't think this time it will be any different . As government can not pass the bill by their own . It must be supported by the CORRUPT members of our parliament which will hardly happen . As government already started the process by sending letter to confirm all state Legislative Assemblies just for saying that they are taking steps . I think these steps will take so, much time that ultimately will frustrate our civilians and nothing will happen . As you have already seen the frustration of Anna and Baba by their statement like Anna said "I have realized that fasting is not the only weapon to make the government toe the line. If the Union government does not promulgate the law before August 15, we will start a ‘jail bharo’ agitation across the country " . And Baba's " I am cobbling together a militia of volunteers, and exhorted youth across the country—20 from each district—to reach his ashram by mid-June for training in both shastra (arms) and shaastra (scriptures)."Peetenge nahin par pittenge bhi nahin (we will not beat anyone, but we won't be beaten either)," What's this ? I respect our democracy a lot and I don't want to see it's going in the hand of Oligarchies . I don't want to see our country turn into Banana Republic like Costa Rica and Honduras .  So, I think this is not the proper way .

 See , who is suffering from this step Is it Digvijay Singh , Kapil sibbal , Sushma swaraj or Niting Gadkari . No one of them . They are politicizing the whole matter and getting publicity . People who are suffering are civilians those who are sitting in Fast Into Deaths with Baba and Anna .

I think We are having sufficient Laws to stop corruption and we don't need some more laws. We only need to implement the existing Laws properly . So , I think the steps taken by Baba and Anna are not completely correct .

According to me what they should do was same as Jai Prakash Narayan , Morarji Desai , Raj Narain and several other leader did at the time of 1975 Emergency and they succeeded . They formed their own party and they won election in 1977 as they already got a lot of publicity . So , Is the case with Baba and Anna . They already got sufficient publicity . Going on “fast unto death” is not the solution. This is illegal. Intention to commit suicide is illegal and the government I believe has the right to jail Anna Hazare and Ramdev as well as others who join them and forcefully feed them. I am not able to understand why we are adopting illegal means when a legal method is available .

This is the correct time where they can form a political party taking some public figure who are with them like Kiran Bedi , Arvind kejriwal and two duo himself and some figure like Ravishankar and their followers . I am sure like minded organizations or individuals like Anna Hazare, Kiran Bedi, Ramdev , Arvind kejriwal , Swami Agni Ved , Prashant Bhusan , Shanti bhusan  and Professional Party of India can select approximately 550 individuals for general elections and 200 individuals for elections in each state. With the present mood in the country, I also think they can get absolute majority in the centre and the states. In addition, they will probably not have to spend the money as publicity is going to be almost free.

I want the view of you people towards my thoughts and comment for the same ...  and suggest me what improvement can i make in my writing ...

  3. When you say "We are having sufficient Laws to stop corruption and we don't need some more laws." which laws are you referring to, and are they strong enough that they will deter people from engaging in corrupt activities?

  6. Manjay U r very right. These Fasts and so called Bhasanbaji with Masala of TV channels r doing nothing but making fools out of d innocent public n getting publicity in the name of "SATYAGRAHA".
    If they really want to do somthing against corruption, they shud join hands with like minded people and come to active politics. We are with them.......

  8. Well written Manjay, u hv supported ur thoughts with facts....but in my opinion we should support baba and anna ji in their agitation, because no common guy can get such a huge support from the masses and it is the only time we can force govt. to form a strict lokpal bill, otherwise govt. will make a toothless bill which will be unable to check corruption at higher level.

  9. no matter what laws are made....humans will find a way to corrupt each other...we live in a world of excesses...everyone wants more then what they have...unless that changes corruption will prevail...the strategy is to punish the perpetrators...it's like treating the symptoms of a disease and hoping it's cured...
